Texans RB David Montgomery considered week to week after groin injury

The Houston Texans got their first win of the season on Sunday against the Tennessee Titans

Houston Texans RB David Montgomery faced uncertainty after sustaining a groin injury during the team's first game of the season against the Tennessee Titans on Sunday. The Texans claimed a 26-3 victory in Nashville, but the injury to their running back left them in a precarious situation. In the first half of the match, Montgomery departed the field due to the groin injury and never returned to play.

Houston Texans head coach DeMeco Ryans classified the injury as "week to week," indicating the extent of uncertainty surrounding Montgomery's availability. The head coach revealed that they are still assessing Montgomery's condition and potential time of absence. The team will continue to evaluate Montgomery throughout the week as they undergo imaging and testing.

If it is determined that Montgomery will miss any significant period of time, Woody Marks is expected to assume a larger role in the team's running back lineup.
